Fusilade II Herbicide should not be applied to areas where edibles are or will be planted.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not labelled to control broadleaf weeds or sedges (nutgrass), as it is only labeled to kill grassy weeds. The best way to kill actively growing chickweed is by pulling as much of it out of the ground as possible by hand or treating the weeds directly around the monkey grass with a non selective glyphosate product such as Roundup.
To prevent or suppress weeds from germinating, using a pre-emergent is helpful! Hi-Yield Turf & Ornamental Weed and Grass Stopper with Dimension is labeled to "suppress" chickweed and safe for monkey grass (liriope)
Fusilade II Herbicide is labeled for quackgrass (growth stage 6-10 inches), however, we do not currently carry any products that are labeled for quackgrass that are safe for use in cool season turf. We would recommend carefully spot treating with something like Roundup and reseeding the areas.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled to be used around edible vegetation therefore cannot be recommended to treat around raspberries.
Methylated Seed Oil would not be recommended to use as a surfactant with Fusilade II Herbicide. A non ionic surfactant is recommended per the product label.
No, Fusilade II Herbicide should not be applied to areas where edibles are or will be planted.
Fusilade is not labeled to be used to kill fescue at all. Your best bet is a Roundup/glyphosate based product or another non selective herbicide to spot treat and reseed the areas with the desirable turf.
Yes, a non ionic surfactant is recommended to be tank mixed with Fusilade II Herbicide to increase effectiveness.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not meant to harm Zoysia grass and can help control crabgrass if applied as directed.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled to be used on buffalo grass. We would recommend contacting your local cooperative extension office to see what you can use in your buffalo grass to kill bermudagrass. Most of the products that we carry can be used on both types of turf, so this would not be helpful to you.
Fusilade II Herbicide works fast, moving quickly into the shoots, roots, rhizomes, stolons and growing points of any of the listed treated plants. It should only be applied as directed for the control of grass weeds in landscape areas, roadsides, nurseries, greenhouses, flower beds, groundcovers, interiorscapes, parks, sports fields, golf courses, commercial and residential areas.
Per manufacturer: Fusilade II works best when applied to the green foliage of actively growing grassy weeds. Cool season turfgrass sod has the best chance of success when laid on a prepared bare soil area, so there shouldn’t be any plant cover present, weeds or turf. If prepared properly, there should not be a need to apply Fusilade II until grassy weeds appear in the new established sod. There would be no weed control benefit to applying Fusilade II to bare soil prior to sodding.
Fusilade II Herbicide can be applied over the Acalypha but the label does not state Dianell. Be sure to make the application toward the ground and not directly on the leaves.

Unfortunately there is not a selective herbicide available that would kill the Bermuda without also harming the St. Augustine & Centipede since they are so closely related. It is recommended to spot treat the areas of bermudagrass with a non selective like Roundup QuickPro and then after 2 weeks resod or reseed the areas with St. Augustine or Centipede.
Updated Jan 2025: Fusilade is not labeled to be used on St Augustine for bermuda grass control when tank mixed with Recognition Herbicide. Following these instructions Recognition Herbicide 2(ee) Supplemental Label-St. AugustineFusilade II Herbicide can be used to control torpedograss though it may take up to 3 applications to gain control.
